Hortankin Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 What's taking so long? I really hope nobody offersheets him because that could be heartbreaking. I'm going 2-3 years 4M aav Or 6-8 years 6.5M aav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 8x6 I hope There's no real rush to extend him, Draisaitl hasn't been extended nor offer sheeted yet so I am not worried. We have time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But would suggest 5 years so if he exceeds expectations he will get a payout earlier. Even at 5 years, can't see it being lower than 6 mil. Probably gonna be closer to 4-5 years, 6.5m imo.

I am banking on something of a "hometown" discount. I have no problems with 6.5 but maybe he really likes it here and does us a favour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 I'd rather go longer term, lower cap hit. In 5 years time, who knows how high the ceiling might be but it's certainly growing, so even 6M won't be that much of a big deal then. I'd give him 8 years, 5.5M per ideally. Takes him to when he's 30 years old when he will probably be at the end of his prime and can take a bit of a paycut. Most importantly we get him at an affordable price at the beginning of, during, and at the end of his prime. When we're starting to contend for the cup in 3-5 years, Horvat's contract is nice and locked down. Give him a big fat NMC too. Baertschi and Granlund will soon be demanding around 3.5-4.5M deals each, ideally 4 years each. That will start to bump us up. Dahlen and Pettersson will (hopefully) be demanding around the 5-6M mark in their prime if they end up being top line scorers. The same will go for Boeser. That's about 30M for our top-6 forwards in the future. Not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takes him to when he's 30 years old when he will probably be at the end of his prime and can take a bit of a paycut. I'd be fine with this deal, but his agent will likely want something shorter so that he can cash in again at a prime age (28ish). 5.5M should be about the max cap-hit he gets. If you look at his comparables (Trocheck, Rask, Rakell) they're all making less than that. We all love Horvat but 6+ is absurd right now. 3 minutes ago, DownUndaCanuck said: Baertschi and Granlund will soon be demanding around 3.5-4.5M deals each, ideally 4 years each. Neither of these players have done anything close to demand a contracts like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bp79 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 What brings him to UFA? 5 years? If so id give him 4 years at around what 4-to4.5 As good as he's been Alex G got almost 5 and has put up more points and scored 30. Although Bo has other intangibles he brings. Still 4.5 at 4 years. And then do the 8-year contract assuming he has earned it. Which I'm sure he will. I just hope JB isn't playing hardball with our future captain.

Rush17 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 i would think based on what Trevor and Jim has said it will likely be in the 4-6 year range. ideally 4 or 5 years if they feel the asking price is to steep. that would give us an opportunity to adjust his salary to a more reasonable rate if they feel he's reaching for the moon right now. im hoping its in the low to mid 5's - might be in the 6's though. Getting Pettersson makes things interesting for sure lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cramarossa Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Loui's contract: 6x6. NTC kicks in when he leaves RFA years (for him that would be year 5 I believe?). Not saying it's the contract I want, but it's what I expect. Regardless, he'll be worth every penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more realistic that we trade Lockwood for McDavid. Maybe we throw in a 2nd. I'm hoping for something like 8 years and something under $7 million / year.
